I've completed the upgrade of the forums to phpBB 3.1.3. The new version is better adapted for viewing from mobile devices and has an entirely new notification system so there should be more post/message notification options available. Also note that there is currently only one theme available for the upgrade.

Please post any issues that you encounter here and I'll do my best to address them.

G'day,
With the old forum, it was in larger font and took up the whole screen which was great for reading, is there some way I can change this? Or when you said that there is only one theme is that what you mean?

There is one thing that might be an easy one. Can the forum be set up to open a new tab when a link is clicked? It used to be that way, now clicking a link opens in the existing window. Just a thought, Bob

With one extra step this can be done. If you right click on the original link you want to open a menu will drop down. One of the choices will be to open in a new tab.

Brian; so far the new Forum looks ok, with some learning curves on my part, I will have no issues. BUT, just after getting photobucket to run some images for me, I really would like to see the ability to CUT and PASTE from my photo library like I do on other items. Not sure if I am explaining correctly , but why do we need a intermiedate web site to allow posting of photos? I normally just have 2 sites open and I cut and paste and copy back and forth. Thanks in advance Wally K.
OR is it this old dud dont know nothin.
